I wish I was floating Above an ocean And listening to the waves break In two small pieces, my soul lives Learning to cope with the fact That I can’t separate them Ocean, Pull me apart
Together doesn’t carry the same weight And I stare into your eyes And the heart begins to fade I feel it deeply within my chest An empty canvas An empty mess You say to me that you feel numb I understand I come undone I wish you’d tell me what eats away At the gentle soul At the words you say
Sadness finds another door An opportunity, perhaps To make you feel whole In all the insecurities You hold close But closing the door Only reveals another Wedged under your life Like the deep engraving Of a choked up routine
I realize today That emotion is always fleeting As are the people And the places And the meanings You were always meant to leave I was never meant to stay He wants to move on She takes it day by day And as I wait for the next ending I can only hope for a new beginning
I will never lie in bed the same way I did when I was younger I will never appreciate the silence The way I did when I wasn’t afraid of it And as I roll from side to side I dream of these times And I squeeze my eyes shut Revealing the loss I’ll never share
